In only 5 years, while we were not looking, President Obama converted the most powerful Federal Agency, IRS, into the most powerful, and apparently unaccountable, political police in the Western World.

Now we know why he is not governing. He is busy (quietly) turning America into police state. If you are a Democrat and support Barack Obama you don't have to worry about anything. Everybody else, not so much.

In a normal democratic country no bureaucrat would be able to keep his job after just about everybody could see that he was lying under oath. Today we have not one but two officials who lied, live on TV, to the Congress. Yet nothing happens. One of them was placed on paid leave and the other was asked to investigate ... himself.

There has to be a reason for this outrage. I think that Eric Holder knows where "all the bodies are buried." He is also president's best friend.

If Eric Holder doesn't quit himself he has to be fired. If President Obama won't do that, then the Congress has to.

We now know that information about the IRS targeting TEA PARTY was leaked by IRS itself with a help of the Democrats. Why?

Here is why.

Knowing what is going on, knowing that IRS is coming after individuals and businesses supporting Republican Party (and those who send them money), no business person will write a check for Republicans. If you run a business, your first duty is to make sure that your business will be here tomorrow, a year or ten years from now. Problems with IRS can kill your business. So, you just don't get involved. Let others deal with consequences of getting political.

New of one business person getting audited not once, not twice but three time with a total cost of $80,000 will chill a lot of people. That's why they are doing that.

SFC Kapacziewki was injured by an enemy grenade on October 3rd 2005 when his element was ambushed in Northern Iraq. He suffered severe damage to his lower right leg, tissue damage to his right hip, and his brachial artery and median nerve in his right arm were severed. He spent 7 months at Walter Reed Army Medical Center undergoing limb salvage before returning to Ft. Benning, Georgia. In March 2007 SFC Kapacziewski had his leg amputated below the knee due to complications with range of motion and chronic pain. He then went to Brooke Army Medical Center for 6 months of physical therapy and learned how to walk with a prosthetic. SFC Kapacziewski’s goal after being injured was to return to a squad leader position and lead Rangers. SFC Kapacziewski re-qualified on the Ranger physical standards by conducting an Army Physical Fitness Test, 5-mile run in under 40 minutes, 12 mile road march in less than 3 hours, fast rope out of a helicopter, and parachute with a combat load. He then regained a squad leader position and was promoted to a platoon sergeant position. SFC Kapacziewski was the first Ranger to return to the line with a prosthetic and has deployed to Afghanistan 5 times with an artificial limb.

It may be fun to talk about latest scandals and targeting those "tea parties" and other right wingers but when stop and think about it is scary.

Tomorrow it could be you and me getting audited by IRS for saying something in public that makes Obama look bad. Remember "Joe the plumber"? Did you know that someone in government position got hold of a lot of information about him that damaged his reputation? They made public his tax return information, welfare and child support. So, if your past is not perfectly clean you better watch out.

I don't know what came over me yesterday and why did I dare to call our dear President the "worst informed". I would also like to point out that I love IRS. (So, please don't audit me.)

Self-criticism (from Wikipedia)Under some systems of communism, party members who had fallen out of favor with the political elite were sometimes forced to undergo "self-criticism" sessions, producing either written or verbal statements detailing how they had been ideologically mistaken, and affirming their new belief in the party line. Self-criticism, however, did not guarantee political rehabilitation, and often offenders were still expelled from the Party, or in some cases even executed.In the Soviet Union, self-criticism was known as samokritika.

President Obama must be the worst informed president of the United States (as well as citizen TV viewer) in our history. Of course, he is outraged by IRS behavior. Here is the problem. Almost everybody new about it, that includes Fox News and New York Times, for 2 or 3 years. NYT was even encouraging this behavior.

So president doesn't watch Fox News (understandably) and/or doesn't know what New York Times writes about? Really?

I would like to tell everyone that my silence has nothing to do with IRS and their targeting of conservatives, tea party and Jewish groups. It did however give me a pause for thought. So, we are OK for now (or until next April 15).
